Baitul Mukarram, also spelled as Baytul Mukarrom (Arabic: بيت المكرّم; Bengali: বায়তুল মোকাররম; The Holy House) is the national mosque of Bangladesh. Located at the center of Dhaka, capital of Bangladesh, the mosque was completed in 1968.[1] The mosque has a capacity of 30,000, giving it the respectable position of being the 10th biggest mosque in the world. However the mosque is constantly getting overcrowded. This especially occurs during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, which has resulted in the Bangladeshi government having to add extensions to the mosque, thus increasing the capacity to at least 40,000.[2]
The mosque has several modern architectural features whilst at the same time it preserves the traditional principles of Mughal architecture which has for some time been dominant in the Indian sub-continant. Baitul Mukarram's large cube shape was modeled to that of the Ka'abah at Mecca making it a noticeable structure being unlike any other mosque in Bangladesh.
Exterior design[edit]
The mosque is on a very high platform. The Baitul Mukarram Mosque's building is eight storied and 99 feet high from the ground level. According to the original plan, the main entrance of the mosque was to be on the eastern side. The 'shaan' on the east is 29,000 square feet with ablution space on its south and north sides. Ablution or Wu'du Place cached an important part when the Baitul Mukarram was begun. The absence of a dome on the main building is compensated by the two superficial domed entrance porticoes, one on the south, and the other on the north. The height of these porticoes consists of three rabbit's foot shaped arches, the middle of which is bigger than the rest.
Interior design[edit]
Two patios (roofless inner courtyard) ensure that enough light and air enter the prayer hall of Baitul Mukarram Mosque. The mehrab of the hall is rectangular instead of semi-circular. Excessive ornamentation is avoided throughout the mosque, since minimizing ornamentation is typical of modern architecture.
The garden is laid out in a style borrowed heavily from Mughal gardens, however unlike the traditional Mughal gardens which represent the Islamic Heaven, the garden does not have the Char-Bagh system most likely due to not having enough room for such a garden. The future of this garden is unknown, if the Bangladeshi government extends the mosque, it will most likely have to remove the garden.
The mosque complex was designed by architect, T Abdul Hussain Thariani. In 1959, owner of then Bawany Jute Mills, Haji Abdul Latif Bawany proposed to Major General Omrao Khan, then military administrator of East Pakistan, of building a grande mosque in Dhaka. Omrao Khan agreed to help on building such mosque. Same year, 'Baitul Mukarram mosque committee' had been established and 8.30 acre of land between new Dhaka and old Dhaka had been chosen. At that time, there was a large pond in present mosque's location. It was known as 'Paltan pond. The pond was filled up and in 27 January 1960 then president of Pakistan Ayub Khan commenced the work. Pray for first time took place on Friday, 25th January, 1963.[3]
The plan included shops, offices, libraries and parking areas within the complex. Though there has been a tradition of dome mosque for Muslim, this building did not maintain the rule of traditional mosque in that time. A Mosque without a dome over the roof of its main prayer hall must have been a unique experiment. The mosque was built when the country was the Part of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

GameCrib TSM Snapdragon - Episode 9 Stir Crazy
Join TSM Snapdragon as they take on Curse again in week 9 with a sick Turtle on the squad.
by Erick Tay on
GameSpot teams up again with A-List League of Legends team TSM Snapdragon to plug you directly into the lives of pro gamers. Watch as the team pulls together to withstand the intensity of some of the biggest tournaments in pro gaming along with the strain
Schedule: Weekly
These guys should really take some rest from games... It is obvious that they have taken to much of this drug :)
I think Dyrus might have ADHD, if he checked this out, this could help him understanding his attention, the way he acts, why he's often late, etc. I might be wrong, but it would help his team understanding he is not lazy or anything and dismantle the thing if its the cause. Maybe I'm wrong ;) I do not know him, but theres some advantage on ADHD that helps gamers, so try to understand it if you have it, good luck TSM :)
In my opinion i think that Reginald should stop this.He is blaming everyone else but himself and he never stands on his feet to say:yes this was my fault.I don't know if the calls are bad or dyrus is doind bad things but Reginald shouldn't act like that.He just thinks he is the best player of tsm and the one who never makes mistakes.Everyone makes mistakes so don't act like you are Mr. Perfect
WHY are you blaming Dyrus! He is seriously the best player on the team in my opinion! LEAVE HIM ALONE D:
I love you Dyrus
Regie seems to be very hard headed, and even if an individual under performs it is a leaders obligation to use a form of communication that is effective for that member. Dyrus does not respond well to confrontation or negative feedback. It's important to know your audience.
Regie needs some coaching classes, and TSM needs a mediator who isn't afraid to just help the communication to be more smooth and developmental, rather than full of animosity.
Dyrus, from what I have seen on streams, interviews, etc. You are a great person. I know your career is extremely stressful, but just keep doing what you are doing. Sadly when people realize you are a nice person they tend to prey on you. Just let it roll and keep being a good person!
i dont care about this, i dont care for pro-esports either lol. I'd rather play a game than watch one,
I still don't know which games these guys are pros in and what the hell is TSM Snapdragon and why the heck does it keep showing up on the main page? :@
you just had miscommunication issues with oddone at dragon just tonight on lcs, you cant tell me that your not having communication issues...
we seriously care this much about professional players? my god, this will never end. way to get adult gamers in the mix. all this professional stuff gears for are tweens.
I've seen Reginald do some terrible terrible plays lately, like jumping onto someone alone and getting gang banged by the enemy team. Dyrus has just been consistent. I think Regi is just being dumb, and he's trying to find a scapegoat for when the team loses. He actually believes that Dyrus is the one to blame. Dyrus holds TOP POSITION in the top lane kda table. Statistically he's the best top laner NA. Wake up Regi.
I'm a christian I go to church, read the Bible and obviously I believe God and yet, I had zero problems with the game's religious theme, or any video game. Its a game, and its sad but true Christians like that is the reason why we are made fun of . Imo
it's not dyruse's fault it's reggie's fault. reggie needs to start looking at his own problems and find out what he needs to improve. thats what makes a good leader not blaiming others
Regi is trash, he underperforms the most in TSM but yet he refuses to bench himself? Sure him benching Chaox was a whatever both sides had good points as to justifying their reason. He's not 100% in it for his team. or he would bench himself and find a sub until hes back to his golden age (doubt it, regi has been a subpar pro ever since the end of season 1 with all the changes to the game that made his laning style of mid very weak)
Wooray, Regi got pissed and blaming another. Time for Regi to kick another person!!!!!!!! Really hope that xD
You know you're the fcking problem if you can get a reaction like that out of DYRUS...... gg Reginald kill off TSM more plx. Afterwards I'm sure Xpecial will be the new "underperformer" since he's the new secondary shot caller.
Sure, get a fever or even a headache, why punish yourself for games? People are really dumb nowadays--'
I gotta admit, Dyrus ult is too late. However, it's a 4v4, they should have at least kept it close instead of getting totally destroyed like that.
12:37 Music isn't always needed when someones talking. This clip would have been a lot better without the cheesy jungle chase music.
@Bilal100 They're a pro league of legends team. They're arguably one of the most popular teams in NA and well known through out the global LoL community. TSM stands for Team Solomid, their team name. The Snapdragon plug-in is because of their sponsorship with Qualcomm who are the developers of the Snapdragon processors that many smartphones utilize.
@Kelleherrr No, Chaox is leaving for Asia to either be a coach or play with an asian team
@Kennheiser @Bilal100 oh well that covers every question I asked thanks for the help bro although I'm more of a DotA player,never played LoL but I've heard it's the same thing.
@AddiSim @Kelleherrr I never wrote anything on this video, I've only just started watching - wtf?!
@AddiSim @Kelleherrr Yeah, because I never wrote it. I was aware of the Chaox situation, I had followed his streams and saw what he was doing.

JERUSALEM — The United States and Israel are preparing to stage a major joint missile- and air-defense drill in Israel this month, an exercise that will showcase the allies' longtime military partnership as they debate how to handle the Iranian nuclear threat.
About 1,000 U.S. troops are en route to Israel for the drill, in which they and Israeli soldiers will use U.S. and Israeli antimissile defense systems and a U.S. missile defense ship to respond to simulated attacks from multiple fronts, according to the commanders heading the operation.
The drill comes amid high international tensions over the Iranian nuclear program and a countdown to national elections in both the United States and Israel, whose leaders have sparred over the issue.

Kelly's Aviation Ryan Airfield 6330 S. Aviator Lane Hangar A HCR Box 289 Tucson, AZ 85735 (520) 578-0018
Welcome to Kelly's Aviation!
Thank you for inquiring about flight instruction and airplane rental at Kelly's Aviation. I've always believed that a flight school should be more than just a place where people learned to fly or rented well-maintained airplanes. The school should be about the people. It should be a place where people can be themselves and feel like they're a part of something special. They should feel like the school is partly theirs- a place where we all have something to contribute and have something to learn from each other, whether you're a student pilot or master flight instructor. Individuals have different personalities, learning styles, life experiences, goals and skill levels. Therefore, the instruction and service needs to be personalized for every person on every flight. While flying can be challenging and hard work, it also should be fun! Everyone involved with Kelly's Aviation knows how flying can transform your life. That's not just because of what you gain in skills and knowledge but also what it can teach you about yourself. The rewards and experiences gained from flying are endless. With all that in mind, our goal is to make every flight a rewarding, personalized and positive experience. After browsing this site, feel free to stop by, drop me an email or give me a call. Many people dream of flying but let us help you earn your wings! Sincerely, Kelly Stites Owner, Kelly's Aviation Ryan Airfield

"Let's face it. When you go online and search the Internet for health insurance prices, you end up more confused then when you started," said Ed Harris, owner and founder of the prestigious website Ohioquotes.com. "And many times, you may be dealing with an out-of-state broker that does not have the expertise you want, when looking through hundreds of different quotes.
We're based in Ohio and we know which plans are going to be the best fit for you. For example, if you want an Ohio Health Savings Account (HSA), we know that Medical Mutual's rates are going to be more competitive in the Northern part of the state. Anthem will tend to have better pricing in the Cincinnati, Dayton and Columbus areas. If you only need catastrophic coverage, we know that UnitedHealthOne'
Ohioquotes.com also filters out companies that are not rated "A-" or better by A.M. Best Company and companies that habitually have high complaint ratios as calculated by the Ohio Department of Insurance. This may be one reason why your Ohio health insurance quote does not offer coverage from a specific company that another out-of-state website uses.
"We are very selective about the companies we use," Harris says. "If the company is not good enough for me or my family, we won't use them until they improve their ratings. Basically, we try to make it very easy for the Ohio consumer to get a health insurance quote. You tell us what type of coverage you want, and we'll do the research and present you with the most affordable plans that meet your requirements. And the rates are guaranteed to be the lowest allowed by the state,"
Harris, an Ohio broker since 1980, spends countless hours every day of the week perfecting the site and insuring that the quote process is as easy as possible. When asked about the 70-hour work weeks he regularly logs, he said,"My daughter is a student and a dancer. My son is a student and a golfer. My wife totes the kids to their destinations, shops, cooks and maintains the household. I have it easy!"

If you can throw out your valuable opinion in a review or vote, I'll give you a high five! (I can't really promise this, but please do it anyway ;] )
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
very nice! it's just the compression (input drive) that is just too loud. 1db less and i gave this a 5/5.
keep working hard!
Alright, I think I know what you're saying about the compression, thanks for the advice and great rating!
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
I think you've got a decent tune here. The transitions and mix just need a bit of work. Your drums also could be a bit more dominant, the track kind of goes off the rails at some parts. Not sure if it was intended, but I didn't really like the effect.
Good luck :) 4/5 7/10
The off rails thing was intended at the spacier points, yeah. Sorry it didn't float your boat :( I'll for sure work on the mix though, thanks for the feedback!

I don't blame a guy if he cheats on his wife if she...
You're disgusting and I hope you end up fat and alone someday. Just saying.
Or that she is exahsuted from having to deal with everything by herself with no support system, or depressed or whatever. You are a PIG! I have never been fat I am 5'3 and been 98 pounds my whole life but how dare you say anything like that. There are all kinds of issues that make women gain weight and to have you justify having their husbands cheat on them is just insane. Hope you get cheated on everynight while you cry yourself to sleep wondering were your S/O is. POS.
Hm. Interesting. Did you know that statistics show that women tend to gain weight when they are unhappy, where as men tend to put on pounds when they are content? Just food for thought. Also what qualifies as "a ton" like literally a ton, or like 50lbs, or are we talking more like 250lbs? What if the spouse looses a bunch of weight, like if my DH lost like 50lbs it wouldn't be pretty...should I cheat if that happens? I'm sure it would make me "a ton" happier right?
What about depression? There are 101 reasons why a person gains weight. Maybe it's biological, maybe they were injured. Does that make it ok for one spouse to walk away from their vows when times get tough? If you don't hold values in the pledges that you make when you marry, do not get married!
Quoting Ireallydontcare:and your point is? You are all important and we needed to hear this from you because we all care so much what an anonymous person says?

IDC Announces $3 Million Renewal Of Datacasting Contract With Canadian Forces Agency.
Business Editors/High-Tech WritersOTTAWA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 31, 2004
International Datacasting Corporation (IDC) (TSX:IDC) announced today the award of a contract extension for IDC's contract with the Canadian Government to provide multimedia datacasting services for the Canadian Forces Personnel Support Agency (CFPSA). IDC provides infrastructure and service for the Canadian Force Radio & Television Service (CFRTS) which delivers news, sports, entertainment, and special events programming to Canadian Forces stationed around the world in ongoing and emerging international operations.
This extension, combined with other recent service expansions, is valued at more than $3 million over the next year. The original contract, which was re-awarded in 2003 after a competitive tender, allows the Government to exercise options for renewal annually for an additional two years. IDC has operated this service since 1999.
This service-which is broadcast in real-time from IDC's Ottawa teleport-includes one channel of video in English, one in French, several home-town radio stations, and other digital multimedia content. The system operates on IDC's SuperFlex DVB-IP technology, which enables the seamless integration of multiple channels of video, audio and IP data into a single satellite carrier-reducing costs and improving quality.
IDC was also recently awarded a contract expansion to deliver additional programming to Canadian Forces personnel in the Middle East, Afghanistan and the Arabian Sea area. As a new contingent from Valcartier is posted to the region, an additional video channel in French and radio stations from Quebec City have been added to the existing programming.
IDC President and CEO Ron Clifton commented, "We are very pleased and proud to have been awarded the renewal of our current service contract with CFPSA and the various extensions. It's a real testimony to the quality of the service and the flexibility of our technology that we've been able to continue and grow the system as required. We are honored to be able provide this valuable contribution to the troops' morale."
CFPSA Executive Vice-President Personnel Support Programs, Greg Pearson commented, "Given the quality of service that IDC has demonstrated throughout the past few years and their ability to fulfill new requirements as they arise, we are pleased to renew our service with them for another year. We look forward to continuing to work with IDC to provide our troops abroad with the Canadian content that helps them stay in touch with home."
IDC Chief Financial Officer Marc Santerre added, "This contract renewal underscores the fact that our focus on excellence in customer service is a key factor in winning ongoing business. CFPSA is an important customer for us and this contract provides excellent recurring service business for IDC as well as a state-of-the-art working system in our back yard where we can demonstrate convergence technology to customers from around the world."

The Chrysler Foundation Pumps Up Support to Michigan High Schools, Grants Additional $40,000 to FIRST Robotics Competition Championship Finalists
The Chrysler Foundation, a founding sponsor of FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology, announced $40,000 in additional grants to nine Michigan-based FIRST teams that qualified to compete against teams from around the world at the 2012 FIRST Robotics Competition Championship (April 25-28) in St. Louis, Missouri.
(3BL Media) Auburn Hills, MI - April 24, 2012 - The Chrysler Foundation today announced that it is granting $40,000 in additional funding to nine Michigan high school robotics teams that will participate in the international 2012 FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) Championship, April 25-28, at Edward Jones Dome in St. Louis, Missouri. The FRC Championship is the culmination of the FRC season and includes teams from across the nation, Canada, Israel, Mexico and Taiwan.
Each of the nine teams will receive an equal share of the $40,000 grant to help offset costs associated with competing in the FRC Championship's Rebound RumbleSM. At the beginning of FRC season in January, The Chrysler Foundation awarded $133,000 in grants to 22 teams (including the nine finalists). During the past 16 years, The Chrysler Foundation has awarded more than $1.7 million in grants to the FRC program and teams.
This week at the FRC championship, each team's robot will compete by trying to score as many of the basketballs in the hoops as possible during the two-minute and 15-second match. The teams qualified to compete in the FRC Championship based either upon their performance at local and state competitions or through an open lottery.

Haven't shot the .45 version, but I've been wanting one for a while. The 9mm makes so much more sense for me, though, due to already having an XDm chambered in 9mm. Looking forward to this.Springfield XDs 9mm

Going down in caliber makes no sense to me in this platform. I mean, we already have many, many small frame single stack 9mm's...so why get too excited about a pistol that was designed as a small frame, large cartridge pistol. I own an XD-s in .45 and love it. It does everything I expected it would do...and does that we'll indeed. Seems a waste to take a perfectly good platform and handicap it by lessening it's power by down clambering it in 9mm. Oh well. I have mine, I suppose I should leave others to buy what they will.
A lot of people prefer 9mm over .45...me being one of them. Also, as I mentioned, it's much more practical for me since I already buy 9mm ammo. Getting a .45 XDs would more than double my ammo costs. I completely get that a 9mm version isn't for everyone...what I don't get is knocking it just because it's not something you want personally.
I am personally waiting on the 40 cal. Really wish they would have released it first.
I already have the XDs-45 and enjoy it. BUT, the second the XDs-9mm hits my LGS I am going to get one. Sounds like fun to have both.
I have a .45 XDS and I love it. There is a reason it's been nicknamed the Shield Killer. Now that they will be releasing it in 9MM it will just give more options for folks to choose from. Some have held back getting an XDS because they don't like the .45 but say that they love the design. This will just help dig the hole a little deeper for the Shield before we throw some dirt on it!

New Spaceport Director
By KRWG News
Las Cruces – The New Mexico Spaceport Authority's board of directors has named a retired Air Force civilian official as the spaceport's next executive director.
Gov. Susana Martinez's office announced Christine Anderson's appointment Monday. Anderson previously served for 30 years in civilian positions with the Air Force, including several years at Kirtland Air Force Base.
Martinez says the spaceport has the potential to create jobs, spur economic development and make New Mexico a leader in space travel. She says her administration will work with Anderson and the spaceport authority to attract private investment and see the project through to its full potential.
Anderson was most recently a director at the Air Force Research Laboratory at Wright-Patterson base in Ohio. She also was the founding director of the Space Vehicles Directorate at Kirtland.

September 28, 2006 Faithful, happily ever after, right? http://www.jewishjournal.com/singles/article/faithful_happily_ever_after_right_20060929 |
It's 8 p.m., and it's about that time for me to change the topic of conversation.
 "I know a dozen quality women but really very few men," says some guy named something, I don't catch it.  That's because I'm sitting on a couch at a house party with my girlfriend trying to catch up with her and enjoy my crudités when this guy comes over and somehow -- I don't know how it always comes back to this, like bad celery repeating on you -- the topic in question is the dating world.  "All the good guys I know are married -- or completely not marriage material," he says, scooting himself next to us on the couch.  He, ostensibly, is one of the good guys: taken. The gold band on his fourth finger waves in the air like a "sold" sticker slapped on a piece of real estate. If there's one thing that's more painful than listening to single people lament the lack of good men around, it's a married person commenting on the fact.  "Hey, did you ever read Bridget Jones?" I asked.  This fast-talking entertainment lawyer hadn't, of course, nor had he seen the movie, and so I enlightened him on the concept of Smug Marrieds, and how Bridget taught us that it's as unacceptable to ask a "Singleton" how her love life is as it is to ask a "Smug Married," about his sex life.  Which is exactly what I did. OK, not exactly. But I turned the conversation around to Mr. Lawyer's own marriage. Turns out he wasn't a Smug Married at all. He wasn't even happily married. Not the way it sounded to me.  "I'm happily married...compared to most people," he said, therein taking us into a terrain into which I am completely unfamiliar. How happy are married people? What happens after the "'Til Death Do Us Part?"  Not what Mr. Lawyer expected. His wife of 10 years was once his "best friend" and also a powerhouse attorney who said she always wanted to work. But after they had kids, she stopped working and now spends her days in the Valley carpooling, housekeeping, lunching and shopping (on an allowance from him). Now they have nothing to talk about, he says, but it's OK, because "she lets me do what I want."  What he wants is to stay out working -- or taking meetings -- until midnight, traveling around the world on various projects and throwing himself into his work, which he "loves." "What about real love?" I ask him. "What about companionship?"  This, he has, I find out from his raised eyebrows. His is a "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," marriage, where as long as the bills are paid, the beds are made, everybody is happy. (By happy he must mean satisfied or some other definition of the word.)  "Look, it's better than my best friend," he says, telling me about a guy who seemed to be in love with his wife of a decade, but then announced one day he was leaving her for his mistress.  "Big mistake," Lawyer says.  Within two months the mistress dumped him, and he went back to his wife to work things out, "but things will never be the same."  I'm having so many problems on so many levels with this conversation that I'm not sure where to begin. As I'm mulling it over, my girlfriend returns, and she joins in.  "It's really hard to be with the same person for more than four years," she says. She cheated on her boyfriend of six years, even though she still loved him.  "Look, everyone does," she says. "Best if you just don't know."  Everyone cheats? Surely I've been living in a sheltered world. Where I come from infidelity is the rare exception to the rule; and yet, in the world I live now, the distinction seems to be between people who admit they cheat and people who don't. In the new movie, "The Last Kiss," infidelity is treated as something inevitable to be dealt with, like hair loss or chicken pox.  Perhaps now is the time to rail against society's expectations for matrimony. I'm comfortable doing this when it suits my purposes, i.e., when I don't want to be pressured into marriage or ostracized for singledom. But when it comes to society's expectations for monogamy, I'm on board. I believe in "the last kiss," that there will be one person I'll want to spend the rest of my life with, and he with me.  Am I an idiot? Am I bourgeoisie and conservative? Na?ve and romantic? Now that I'm older, I'm realistic enough to know that maybe at times it will be hard -- hard to keep the romance alive, hard to find time for love in the midst of kids and bills and work and community obligations, hard not to want to kill the person you're with at least, say, once a week -- but is it really impossible? Is adultery inevitable?  I've spent so much time looking for Mr. Right, but what does it matter if Mr. Right is going to be the guy flirting with some single girls at a house party while his wife waits at home thinking he's at a meeting?  I look at Mr. Lawyer and think, "Is this what I have to look forward to?" I also think, "Is your hand on my knee?!!"  Quickly, I take it off, excuse myself and leave the party, thankfully, this time, alone.  |

Our experts answer real-life questions
Q Im a new runner and Im very cautious about my diet. Is there a maximum amount of protein my body can absorb? I eat most of my daily protein (two cans of tuna) at dinner.
I would suggest eating some protein at other meals as well, for example yoghurt at breakfast or tofu at lunch. Its also important to eat protein from a variety of sources so that your body gets an array of nutrients. Eating only tuna, even though its a great source of protein, is too limiting. Other foods, such as low-fat dairy products, eggs, lean meats, and beans, provide the additional nutrients that your body needs. Try including some of these foods in your daily diet.

Yeah, I got charged for a game once but the actual purchase didn't go through. I tried to get a refund (or at least actually get the game) and they kept saying that the charge was for a different purchase. Steam support is pretty bad.

New Historical Fiction From Brenda K. Marshall: DAKOTA
About Dakota, Or Whats a Heaven For: The lives and schemes of frontier politicians, Northern Pacific Railroad executives, bonanza farmers, and homesteaders converge in the story of Frances Houghton Bingham, who marries the son of a Red River Valley bonanza farmer in order to remain near her new husbands sister. Emotionally complex, willful and resourceful, Frances is seduced by the myths of opportunity driving the settlement of Dakota Territory, and dares to dream of a new world in which to realize her unconventional desires. Providing a counterpoint to the dramatic risks taken by Frances is the generous voice of Kirsten Knudson, the daughter of Norwegian homesteaders. As Kirsten grows from a voluble girl to a formidable woman, her observations (equal parts absurdity and insight) reveal the heart of the novel. About Author Brenda K. Marshall (in her own words): I was born on a farm in the Red River Valley of eastern North Dakota, and grew up climbing trees, riding my pony, and daydreaming under a wide prairie sky. I left North Dakota after college, and have since lived in Colorado, Minnesota, Iowa, Washington, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and for the past fourteen years, Michigan. I have a Ph.D. in English, and teach part-time in the English Department at the University of Michigan. My first novel, Mavis, was published in 1996, and my second novel, Dakota, Or Whats a Heaven For, was released in November 2010 from the North Dakota Institute for Regional Studies. I also have published a book of scholarship, Teaching the Postmodern: Fiction and Theory (Routledge, 1992). My (unlawfully wedded) spouse of twenty-five years, Valerie, and I live in the country near Ann Arbor, with two horses, two dogs, and one cat. When not writing or teaching, I might be trying to improve my nascent woodworking skills, riding horse, working in my vegetable garden, helping out in Valeries huge perennial garden, reading, exercising at the gym, listening to opera, or planning trips, some of which I actually take. No matter where I am living or what I am doing, I think of myself as a North Dakotan.

McKean, Paul G. and Pritchard, D. I. (1989) The action of a mast cell protease on the cuticular collagens of Necator americanus. Parasite Immunology, 11 (3). pp. 293-297.
Full text not available from this repository.Official URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-3024.1989.tb00667...
Collagen-like proteins, thought to be responsible for maintaining the structural integrity of the nematode cuticle, were isolated from adult Necator americanus and shown to be susceptible to digestion by purified mast cell proteases. Although these collagens would appear normally to be masked by superficially expressed (surface) antigens, it is suggested that a sufficiently avid and specific immune response could remove this potentially protective coat, rendering the structurally important underlying layers open to immune attack.

60 million years ago The Indian plate collided with the Eurasian plate causing devastating effects across Asia, forming large mountain ranges like the Himalayas. At this time lime stone karsts were pushed through the grassy plane to heights soaring over 100m. Later as the Pacific Ocean began to rise water began to fill this grassy basin later to be known as the Andaman Sea. The Phi Phi caves where born.
These amazing and interesting dive sites are virtually unknown to the multitude of divers that visit Phi phi island each year as venturing into the darkness is not something to be undertaken without the correct training.

Hix, Simon (2002) Parliamentary behaviour with two principals: preferences, parties, and voting in the European parliament. American Journal of Political Science, 46 (3). pp. 688-698. ISSN 0092-5853
Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
The European Parliament has be? come one of the most powerful insti? tutions in the European Union. Mem? bers of the European Parliament (MEPs) can now enact legislation, amend the European Union budget, veto the nominee for the European Union Commission President, and censure the Commission. But, we know little about what determines MEPs' voting behavior. Do they vote according to their personal policy preferences? Do the EP parties force MEPs to toe the party line? And, when national party and EP party preferences conflict, which way do MEPs respond?to the principals who control their election (the national parties) or the principals who control their influence in the EP (the EP par? ties)? The results reported here show that national party policies are the strongest predictors of voting behav? ior in the EP.

The global consumption of functional foods and drinks increased by a compound annual rate of over 6% between 2003 and 2008, and growth is predicted to continue over the next three years.
Trends in the food and drinks industry, including health trends such as functional food and drinks and ethical trends such as organic and natural, have led to major brands developing a number of brand extensions to cater for these trends.
Japanese food and drinks manufacturers continue to produce some of the most novel products on the market. With similar overall trends driving the global industry, European and US markets will be heavily influenced by this innovation.
The women's health market has traditionally been focussed on weight control and pregnancy, but scientific advances in gender-specific nutrition, applications of new and existing ingredients and a fragmenting market, have led to new opportunities.

Jung, R E; Windisch, S I; Eggenschwiler, A M; Thoma, D S; Weber, F E; Hämmerle, C H F (2009). A randomized-controlled clinical trial evaluating clinical and radiological outcomes after 3 and 5 years of dental implants placed in bone regenerated by means of GBR techniques with or without the addition of BMP-2.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this randomized-controlled clinical trial was to evaluate the long-term outcome of implants placed in bone augmented with a xenogenic bone substitute material and a collagen membrane with or without the addition of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Eleven patients received a total of 34 implants placed into sites exhibiting lateral bone defects. In a split mouth design, the defects were randomly treated with the graft material and the collagen membrane either with (test) or without (control) rhBMP-2. The patients were examined 3 and 5 years after insertion of the prosthetic restoration. Student's paired t-test was performed to detect differences between the two groups. RESULTS: The survival rate at 3 and 5 years was 100% for both groups. The peri-implant soft tissues were stable and healthy without any difference between the two groups. The prosthetic reevaluation demonstrated four loose prosthetic screws during the first 3 years and seven ceramic chippings after 3 and 5 years. The mean distance between the first bone to implant contact to implant abutment junction at 3 years was 1.37 mm (test), 1.22 mm (control), and 1.38 mm (test), and 1.23 mm (control) at 5 years. The difference of <0.2 mm between test and control implants was not statistically significant. The mean change of the marginal bone level between baseline and 5 years ranged from -0.07 mm (mesial, test), -0.11 mm (distal, test), -0.03 mm (mesial, control), to +0.13 mm (distal, control). No statistically significant differences were observed between test and control sites. CONCLUSION: Implants placed in bone augmented with and without rhBMP-2 revealed excellent clinical and radiological outcomes after 3 and 5 years.

PinbackPinback: Autumn of the SeraphsAutumn of the Seraphs (2007)Touch and Go Records Reviewer Rating: 3.5 User Rating: Contributed by: SloaneDaleySloaneDaley (others by this writer | submit your own) Well, it's that time of year again my pretties; it's time to grow out your facial pubes and pick that scarf up out the milk crates; it's fall!

Well, it's that time of year again my pretties; it's time to grow out your facial pubes and pick that scarf up out the milk crates; it's fall! (Alternatively, if you live in Toronto, I think it has been that time of year for the last decade or so.) Lucky for us, it would appear that the fellows of Smith, Crow and Co. are just about as ripe for the season as you and me. You see, their latest full-length intentionally gives the impression of decay; evoking both with its name and beautiful album art, images of the Judaeo-Christian fall from grace, as well as the commonly acknowledged climatic shift that occurs on what we the Romans call the 21st of September. For such drab and dreary sentiments, you might expect something harsh or abrasive, but the end result is something rather warm and inviting.

Great album. "Good to Sea" is ridiculously catchy. I'm kinda upset I missed them in Ann Arbor recently. This band was good as the Sergeant in Dark Star. Anyone heard Anthony Greene do 'Penelope' acoustic? this is an excellent album and i also listen to it with planet of ice! this is good stuff. check it out. huh, how have i never really listened to them? I think i know one song, by them.... i just heard "penelope" for the first time on a comedown a few weeks ago, great song. im gonna buy this. mario only plays on the first song actually. anyways, this thing is pretty good. its hard to listen to repeatedly, but "walters" is a forkin great song duder. Mario Rubalcaba of Earthless /Hot Snakes /Clikatat Ikatowi/ RFTC plays drums on this album. I love their first album but this album is a fucking treat and a half. Again, one of the best this year. Pinback is such an essential band for me just to chill out and listen to just before falling asleep. I had no idea Pinback was releasing an album this year; needless to say, I'm picking it up soon. This doesn't sound like my type of thing, but I have to say that alot of very well done reviews have been going up lately, and this is one of them So awesome. I think this record is better than Summer in Abaddon but not quite as good as the first record. I'm a huge fan of Summer in Abaddon. Thinking of checking this out. How does it compare? Due to the band's complexity I was comparing this to Planet of Ice as well. I'm glad I'm not the only one. I love Pinback/Rob Crow. This is my favorite release so far this year. |

After operating sucessful booths at both Lula B's locations, husband-and-wife team Achlee and Nick Wise struck out on their own to open this vintage shop. The couple transformed the former AT&T service facility on Main Street in Richardson into a sleek backdrop (think painted brick walls and a loft-like open floor plan) for their amazing finds. Among other goodies, the space is currently filled with groovy paintings, art tomes, sculptural chairs, loads of brass and Asian goodness, and a trove of iconic, mid-century furniture by the likes of Nelson, Saarinen, and Baughman.

>Runner's World - My Event Ratings>
In short: and I thought I was fit....In full: I have never expended so much energy trying to stay upright (other than after a good drink!). If my feet slid to the left, then they slid to the right. One step forward and three to the side...but don't be put off this was a great experience for a first timer at multi-terrain and I found muscles in my legs that the road running just doesn't find. Not to be put off I'll be there for round two! I have a new PB at multi- terrain to beat!Date of review: January 27, 2006

Yesterday my son and I had fun cutting out some scrap paper and turning them into little animals. It was really a fun way to use old paper. We kept making more and more animals until we had a full zoo. Here are a few of them.

I really love these animals!
Do you have a template for this project? -
Thanks artyowza. I don't have a template for these, but I will in the craft/toy book I'm writing! Unfortunately you'll have to wait until Fall 2011.
[...] I made a little cowboy scene out of paper. Similar to the paper animals I made before. These are made from painted paper that I use for my collages, but any paper will [...]

Hilary White: 'Altar' Solo Exhibition. March 6th, from 6-10 p.m. If you were at the Heart Show or made it in afterwards to see all the amazing hearts, I'm sure you noticed the incredible 3-d heart featuring boxers, bears and victorian cameos by Hilary White. Her upcoming solo show, 'Altar' promises to be filled with these amazing assemblages, so don't miss it! Hilary's statement from her website: The arts as early as the 4th century of the Byzantine era through the early Gothic period of the 12th century were created and commissioned for the sole use of the church. Most artists of this time were limited to creating images that were deemed "useful" to extend the gospels to the poor and illiterate including the visual depictions of the old and new testaments in places of worship. During the end of the Gothic period a more pluralistic view of art emerged. In the early 19th century a phrase was coined "Art for the sake of Art". Which became a sort of mantra for the creative individuals of that era. This new movement meant a total disengagement of art from any religious, moral, or utilitarian function, art meant to stand alone as a means unto itself. My work is an attempt to wrestle with these two approaches, creating out of the struggle to join my personal faith in God into my mixture of influences; insecurities, doubts, vanities, and culture. The work is an exploration of theology and imagination, Christ working through chaos and diluted ethos to establish hope, a reconciler for the graceful and the grotesque.

Las Vegas star James Caan is calling off the divorce that was filed last month, and he's moving back in with his wife of nearly 10 years, Linda, reports
Caan, 65, had filed for divorce from Linda, 50, on April 18 citing irreconcilable differences. The couple have two sons, James Jr., 9, and Jacob, 6.
No details regarding any reconciliation have been given.
At the time that Caan announced his split, he said: "I love and respect my wife as a friend and as a mother. Our goal in life is to continue to be great parents and great friends. Our children are our entire lives and they will remain as such."
Caan rose to fame (and received an Oscar nomination) as hotheaded Sonny
Corleone in 1972's The Godfather, and at the height of his movie career his film credits included 1975's Funny Lady, with Barbra Streisand.
He and his wife, the former Linda Stokes, were married Oct. 7, 1995, according to the court papers filed in the case.
Caan's previous three marriages – each of which produced one child – ended in divorce.

Ceradyne, Inc. has signed a definitive agreement and plan of merger to acquire SemEquip, Inc. for approximately $25 million in cash at closing, plus contingent payments of up to $100 million during the 15-year period following completion of the merger based on revenues achieved over that period by SemEquip. Privately held SemEquip, Inc., based in North Billerica, Mass., is a leader in the development of cluster ion implantation sub-systems and advanced ion source materials for the manufacture of logic and memory chips. SemEquip has a significant patent portfolio related to the use of cluster chemicals in semiconductor ion implantation. SemEquip's technologies enable the utilization of cluster beam ion implantation for manufacturing advanced integrated circuits at low costs and high throughputs.
This acquisition will expand Ceradyne Boron Products' business and will significantly extend Ceradyne's market opportunity in the semiconductor industry. Ceradyne acquired Ceradyne Boron Products, LLC (formerly EaglePicher Boron, LLC) in August 2007. Ceradyne Boron Products mainly produces the boron isotopes 10B and 11B. The boron isotope 11B (enriched boron) is used as a "doping" agent in semiconductor processes where ultra-high-purity isotopic boron is required. This growing market currently accounts for approximately 40% of Ceradyne Boron Products' sales.
Enriched boron is the key isotope used to manufacture the B18H22 "cluster boron" molecule that SemEquip's cluster ion beam implantation systems use to achieve next-generation performance in semiconductor ion implantation. B18H22 and related cluster chemicals will be manufactured by the Ceradyne Boron Products facility in Quapaw, Okla.
"The SemEquip acquisition follows the model we have successfully used in the past; that is, the vertical integration of raw material to final product," said David Reed, Ceradyne's president of North American Operations. "Ceradyne Boron Products, a 2007 acquisition, will produce the elemental boron for the cluster boron molecule and elemental materials for additional proprietary molecular products for SemEquip. A similar strategy was incorporated in the 2004 ESK Ceramics acquisition, where ESK Ceramics produces the boron carbide powder for Ceradyne's U.S. armor operations, and again in the 2007 acquisition of Minco, where Minco produces the high-purity fused silica powder for use in Ceradyne's photovoltaic solar ceramic crucibles."
Michael Kraft, Ceradyne's vice president of Nuclear and Semiconductor Business Units, said, "SemEquip leverages Ceradyne Boron Products' technology, complements our existing semiconductor business, and advances Ceradyne's strategy to grow commercial revenues through acquiring advanced materials businesses that have high-margin, recurring revenue streams that serve high-growth markets."
A portion of the closing date consideration and the contingent consideration to be paid by Ceradyne relates to a pre-closing commitment by SemEquip to pay incentive compensation to several of its employees and advisors. This incentive compensation will not increase the total consideration Ceradyne will pay for the acquisition, but it will require Ceradyne to record a pre-tax accounting charge estimated to be in the range of $9 million to $11 million in the quarter during which the acquisition is completed.
